Cool video from Mladin regarding traction control being the magic pill.

Ah but its not really "traction control" It simply limits how fast the engine can rev, no sensors are attached to the wheels, its like how a shock or steering dampener works. The trick is in the setup. Being a passive system, you have "guess" how much power you can give the bike for gear and throttle positions. That where the Yoshimira team has the advantage, they kinda invented it.
